As the field of immersive technologies continues to grow at a rapid pace, people from all across the world are starting to wonder what their immersive futures may look like. Will immersive technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) become part of our everyday lives?
This blog article by Mairi Deighan, on the Centre for Sociodigital Futures blog, outlines how these sorts of questions were addressed by welcoming a group of Y10 students to take part in Immersive Technology Sessions at the University of Bristol. The students attend a variety of local schools and are from under-represented backgrounds, the immersive sessions contributed to their weeklong work experience at the University.
